Evolutionary and functional analyses of LRP5 in Neanderthals, Denisovans and anatomically modern humans

2024-02-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> The human lineage has suffered a skeleton gracilization compared to other primates and archaic populations such as the Neanderthals. This gracilization has been traditionally explained by differences in the mechanical load that our ancestors exercised. However, there is growing evidence that gracilization could be also genetically determined. Results We have analyzed the LRP5 gene from an ev...
